All climbers, including adults, youth, new climbers, and veteran climbers are invited to attend competitions. Generally, climbers get to choose what climbs they want to do. Each climb is worth a point value. The harder the climb, the greater the point value. Standings are based on points accumulated in a given amount of time, based on their five highest value climbs.

Competitions are usually one-day events held on weekends. Past competitions for our Mid-Atlantic Region have been in Charlotte, NC; Raleigh, NC; Lynchburg, VA; Richmond, VA; and right here in Charleston. More information on competition formats...
